Faults:

General Comments:

First, had problems with alignment. Sent to service center. They used my spare tyre to replace the faulty front left tyre. Now I have a faulty spare tyre.

Second incident, 5th gear not smooth to engage. Sent to service center again, they told me it was normal, the design is such. Basically telling me to live with it.

Thirdly, vibration. From the steering wheel, gear lever, throttle. Sent to service center again... told me the same thing... design is such.

Can someone tell me what to do, as I think I've got a defective Proton in my hands. I want a replacement, better still, my money back. Never buy a Proton. In Australia, they are selling it for AUD11,990. The cheapest new car in Australia. It's called S16. 2 SRS airbags. 1.6 (M). How can Proton sell its car for so cheap in Australia and provide the best features, but in Malaysia, we get all the rejects for a much higher price. You get a better quality, cheaper Proton overseas than in your own country. What a rip off!

May I know what is the petrol cost per km in general? I heard from my friend that the petrol consumed for a new Saga is excessively higher than any other "cheap" Proton car, i.e. Iswara, Satria. Is that true? I thought Proton, cheap car, should be petrol-save?

Still...the Myvi is horrible if you were sitting in the back seat... bad suspension... not to mention it's prone to accidents due to its lightness, plus it's a cheaper version of the Toyota Passo. Cut and paste, but cheaper.

The Saga BLM is a Malaysian product design for Malaysians who don't complain much...

Seriously? Then why is the Myvi the best selling national car in Malaysia? I own a Saga BLW 2010 and I'm quite disappointed with the fuel consumption and many other things. I just wanna say every car has its own PROS & CONS. Please stop talking like the Saga is the best car in the entire world.

BTW I think other people that do not yet own these two cars will prefer to choose the Myvi, your so called CUT & PASTE version of the Toyota Passo. I don't think a Japanese car design will lose to a Malaysian designed car.
